What is satisfaction?

I keep thinking

There’s some missing piece

In this fulfillment puzzle

Once I accomplish this

Or become that

Go there

Buy that thing

Be with that person

I’ll finally

Be something.

But no matter how much I do

It’s only temporary satisfaction

I’m chasing some idea

Of what I think

I’m supposed to feel

Or who I should be

But I’m not so sure

If this idea is my own

Or if it’s been fed to me

Through outside sources
